Project Discription:

The KOICA-funded E4DT project will contribute to achieving the
overall objective of the regional E4D programme. The specific
contributions have been formulated as follows: (1) E4DT will ensure that
supported vocational training offers in Tanzania are labour market
oriented; (2) The preconditions for a successful transition from
training to jobs at selected Tanzanian vocational training institutions
are improved; and (3) Public-private cooperation related to employment
promotion in Tanzania is improved. It is expected that as a result of
E4DT, at least 1.500 Tanzanians receive an employment opportunity or
increase their income by at least 10%. A large part of the E4DT project
is to be implemented by a contractor “tenderer”). The specific measures
that the contractor is expected to carry out are described in this
document.

The project sites for the E4DT project are the three VETA Regional
Vocational Training and Service Centres (RVTSC – “VETA Centres”) in

of Tanzania. These sites were chosen based on demand by the Tanzanian
Government as well as industrial activities in these regions.
